We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of IXP Manager 
v6.3.1.

This release primarily fixes a number of XSS security issues in IXP 
Manager. These were discovered and responsibly disclosed by the GRNET IT 
Security Team and we thank them for that.

This release is a bugfix release and so there are no database schema 
changes.


Full details are available at:

https://github.com/inex/IXP-Manager/releases/tag/v6.3.1


Additional note regarding the security updates:

This release includes a fix for five XSS security bugs.

We judge four of these bugs have a CVSS score of 
CVSS:0.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:R/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:N. These can only be 
exploited by an authenticated superadmin user who would enter 
specifically crafted JavaScript code in specific input fields.

The final we judge as CVSS:4.6/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L as an 
attack exploiting this could be possible from a sufficiently 
sophisticated and motivated non-admin user who could find a way to 
inject a XSS payload into a logged database object and could then 
convince a superadmin to view that database change in the UI log tool.

Credit to the GRNET IT Security Team for responsibly disclosing these 
issues.




Kind regards,
Barry O'Donovan
